This is no easy task, and intersections the areas where interactions between pedestrians and drivers become most dangerous. While pedestrians have the right of way in crosswalks, physics and mass give cars an advantage if they strike pedestrians.

Cities are starting to
use technology and other strategies
across their public roads. This is an effort to combat the trend of increasing deaths from traffic accidents in the United States.

Most municipalities are willing to invest in new technology across their transportation systems to help improve efficiency and reduce carbon emissions. Cities often invest in conventional traffic safety equipment like
traffic cones
to assist roadway construction, but many situations require more advanced solutions to address inefficiencies and dangerous intersections.

These improvements not only improve public roads, many cities are starting to turn their city into a “smart city” with advanced technologies communicating across a complex network of systems.

Since these systems are expensive and concerns about security and other issues prevent these systems from being fully implemented, many cities are not able to implement the advanced tech necessary.

This means that only the wealthiest cities are capable of taking a technological approach, but even cities who struggle to balance their budget can build safer public streets with some simple, yet effective intersection designs.

Designing or updating our city intersections is one of the
most important aspects of roadways safety
because any improvements will have an immediate impact on citizens. Drivers will be able to commute safely with reduced collisions, and pedestrians will be able to cross busy roads with less risk of injury or death.

At the most basic level, making intersections safer for pedestrians and motorists comes from making the environment more controlled.

One of the most significant variables that lead to injuries and deaths is when either pedestrians or drivers act in unexpected ways, so finding ways to alter traffic flow when pedestrians are present or maintaining consistency at intersections is

.

Here are a few ways that engineers and local policymakers can work together to ensure smooth transportation for drivers while also making intersections safer for pedestrians.

One of the most practical ways to make intersections more predictable is to install street traffic lights. While these lights can beconventional safety lights, there are several models that allow traffic control officials to install sensors on lights to change timing and improve the security of the area.

If you get an error about "undefined reference" when compiling a program of your own from source code, then you are probably missing to include some required symbols which should be distributed in a separate library archive. To find which archive to include we can use the tools "readelf" and "nm".

Let us take an example. Here we have a situation where gcc has aborted the compilation due to not finding a couple of symbols starting with the name NSSLOWHASH:

If we inspect the shared object file we can see what other shared object that might be needed:

Here we see among other things that libfreebl is referenced and needed. We can list its symbols by the following command:

It appears as the missing symbols are included in this file. So by making sure that make/configure/gcc include this library/directory in the compilation, your errors should go away. (This could be as easy as including the correct compiler module on the cluster, but if you're building something where you need more unusual dependencies you might have to add these inclusions manually.)

A “low-tech”, more economical method of ballistic ranging was first developed for the Centurion and was also used by Chieftain gunners. It involved a modified 12.7 mm (0.5 in) machine gun to find the range by firing successive bursts in a precise pattern to calculate the trajectory. The gunner had to pick the corresponding mark appropriate to the type of gun ammunition to be fired, laying it on the target. The range of the target was so determined with a high degree of accuracy, also having the advantage of considering trunnion tilt and crosswinds.

However, it could disclose the position of the tank prematurely. Although simple and robust, it took a substantial time and precious time. This was not such a disadvantage at that time, as the / and especially the had long reload and traverse times. In the 1980s it appeared as a “B-plan” in case of a failure of the other systems, as much faster and more precise electronic ballistics computers prevailed. Both the gunner and commander had a firing switch for the gun, while the commander had an override.

Evolution

The Chieftain remained front-line in British service until 1996 and its development went through 12 different marks and some additional submarks. Outside an updated infrared/white light searchlight online with the gun for target illumination, the FCS evolved to a laser rangefinder. A digital computer was soon introduced to automatically set up the ballistic solution, preparing the respective offset laying for each target. There were also minor electronics or protection upgrades (new NBC lining), improved classified armor, Thermal Observation and Gunnery Sight improved or upgraded to the Challenger I level. However, most of the evolution was aimed at solving the mobility issue, calling an upgraded powerplant.

Chieftain Tank Variants

Chieftain 900

This was a testbed for the Chobham armour. The hull glacis and sides, the turret, were entirely new, and this version formed the basis for the next generation of MBTs, the Challenger 1.

FV4204 ARV

This was an armed recovery and repair vehicle.

FV4205 AVLB

The bridge-layer version (designated n°8 to N°12 bridge) equipped with a scissors-type bridge. A Close Support Bridge System was also tested. The AVLB Mk 6 was a Chieftain Mk 1/4 converted with mountings for FWMP and fitted with additional armour.

AVRE

The main combat engineering vehicle, developed by Vickers for and used by the Royal British engineers. The Mk.2 had a dozer blade, or a mine plough.

Chieftain Marksman

This SPAAG was a twin-gun anti-aircraft version, with a Marconi Series 400 radar and swiss Oerlikon 35 mm autocannons. None was exported.

Chieftain Sabre

It was another SPAAG prototype, with a flat-plate turret, multi-angle front, tapering bustle, and a Twin barrel, 30mm, with multi-perforated muzzle-brakes.

Other prototypes

Outside the initial production prototypes PP1, G1 and GT, a mine clearer version kit was developed, as well as the
Black Women Booties 3cm Heel and Sole of 15 cm Lace wU48tsTmsv
, the Chieftain SID (modifications set to reduce its signature), another tested the ROMOR-A armour kit, the Varma ERA set, or to test the Vickers/Air-Log Ltd Hydrostrut suspension.

Operators and service

The Chieftain, like the Centurion before, was largely exported to the Middle East, but failed to be adopted by any country within NATO, choosing the German leopard instead. The Chieftain was proven in combat and showed adaptability to upgrades such as overall improvement or for local modifications on the export market. A new commander’s cupola was devised, an uprated engine introduced and additional equipment added to make the Mk 3 variant. The final definitive Chieftain production model became the Mk 5 and these added NBC protection units at the turret bustle as well as further uprated engines.

Israel

An agreement was cancelled by the British Government in 1969, despite the efforts already put into the local adaptations of the tank for IDF, including the use of an improved hull-down firing capability which served the Israeli Centurions so well in 1967. However this development served as a blueprint for the creation of the

, led by General Israel Tal, largely involved in the local Chieftain project.

Jordanian Chieftains

The first main export variant was the Khalid Shir (Lion) also known as the 40302PJ for Jordan, which included the running gear of the Challenger Mk.I he Jordanian Shir 1 comprised 274 tropicalized tanks which were delivered from 1980 to 1985.

Iranian Chieftains

The FV4030/1 (Mark V 3P) was exported, then the Shir 2 (FV4030/3) which was a Jordanian Shir 1 (FV4030/2) upgraded at Leeds for Iran, with a reworked rear which allowed to mount the more recent Rolls Royce CV8 engine of the Challenger. The Shir 2 was basically an improvement of the Chieftain Mk.V built exclusively for Iran, which still remains today in first line service.

These were upgraded locally as the Mobarez package. Other variants of the Chieftain were sold to Iran from 1975 to 1979, with 707 Mark 3P and 5P, 125-189 FV-4030-1, 41 ARV and 14 AVLB being delivered before the revolution.

Iraqi Chieftains

About 50-75 Chieftains (ex-Kuwaitis) were in service with the Iraqi Army in 1990. They were later upgraded to Khalid-level (4030P2J) with Air-conditioning and reinforced armour, plus improved night vision. Their fate in 2001 is not known.

Kuwaiti Chieftains

Kuwait (267 from 1976 to 1995). The Kuwaiti 35th Armored Brigade saw heavy action at the Battle of the Bridges, against some elements of the Iraqi Hammurabi and Medina divisions. After crippling losses, they had to withdrew over the Saudi border and a total of 136 tanks were captured by Iraq. Apparently only 7 tanks managed to survive the war.

Omani Chieftains

Oman took delivery of 27 Chieftains Vs, later upgraded to the Qayd Al Ardh standard fitted with L20 sight and Type 520 laser rangefinder. All these are still in first line service.

A test-bed for the Challenger

The Challenger was planned in 1985 to replace the Chieftain, but was largely based on the Chieftain FV4030/4, cancelled Iranian Shir 2 and late Chieftain 800, 900, 1000 and 2000. Technological improvements were mostly new electronic and numeric device and range-finders, communication system, ammunition loading, updated armour and a much more powerful Rolls-Royce engine.

The latter provided a much needed greater speed, although the mechanical gear train and hull were basically unchanged since the Chieftain. The first tanks were delivered in 1990.
